Google’s Ridiculously Lame Official Explanation for Its Secret Barges

Google — or as Glenn Beck referred to it: “a shill for the U.S. government” — the omnipresent internet company that now makes those nifty glasses with facial recognition capabilities you can wear to spy on everyone (or even be spied on yourself)…the company that owns the virtual Earth mapping software Google Earth that used to be called Keyhole when it was funded by the CIA’s In-Q-Tel…the company with the CEO that said, “We know where you are. We know where you’ve been. We can more or less know what you’re thinking about.” …ya know, Google?

Well, apparently the company has several giant floating barges stationed off both U.S. coasts (two off San Francisco, one off Maine and one off Connecticut) and, up until now, Google has been pretty tight-lipped on what these barges are sitting out there for.

Many a theory has been put forth regarding these barges, with a lot more people guessing ‘floating data centers’ than ‘floating theme parks’ or ‘floating art installations’.

Could that be because Google filed a patent in 2007 for a “floating platform-mounted computer data center comprising a plurality of computing units” which was granted in 2009? The first Google barge showed up the following year off the coast of Connecticut, after all.

Well, apparently the company has finally cleared up the mystery on its top secret hush hush barges according to The Register:

Google has shed more light on just what it plans to do with a pair of floating barges off either coast of the US.

The advertising giant told The Register that its two vessels, officially known as Google Barges, will in fact be designed to serve as nautical showrooms for the company’s latest and greatest products.”

But wait, there’s more!

“Although it’s still early days and things may change, we’re exploring using the barge as an interactive space where people can learn about new technology.”

That’s right! These giant floating barges with what appear to be a large group of antennae on top are merely just an interactive space…you know, where people can…learn…about…new technology….out in the…ocean…

Also, if you are buying that, Google has a pair of super trendy glasses to sell you.

Aaron and Melissa Dykes (formerly Melton) created Truthstream Media to figure out what in the hell is really going on around here.

Co-founder of Truthstream Media, Aaron Dykes is an investigative researcher and video creator with over a decade of experience in uncovering the secretive and often nefarious that gravitates around power. Together with his wife Melissa Dykes, Aaron has traveled across the country in search of threads tied to political intrigue, black ops, military industrial complex, the weaponization of science, a hidden history of eugenics and population control, unethical human experimentation and the quest to control the physical mind that remains ongoing and little known. Aaron has been part of hundreds of videos and interviews on a variety of important topics across the spectrum of geopolitics and conspiracy, news and olds.

Melissa Dykes is the other co-founder of Truthstream Media, and a passionate and witty voice for common sense and sanity in a world plagued by lies, corruption and deep conspiracies that has patched over reality and left a world of naive and helplessly herded people lost in technology, and cut off from their own history. She has focused her investigative research and video production on issues ranging from health and safety in smart meters, EMF, ersatz food, cell towers and other modern environmental concerns, to the dark underbelly of covert experimentation, CIA plots, secret infrastructure and the organized and systematic control over the minds of the population. Melissa has written dozens of articles, edited and produced countless videos, and several documentary projects in the hopes of shining a light in the right places.
